When Windows XP boots up, it displays the Windows XP
logo, then goes to the Welcome screen. Two of my machine
installations take about 5 seconds to make this
transition, and one machine takes about 70 seconds.
During this interval, all three machines display a blank
monitor, but the 70 second machine is particularly
irritating. I tried optimizing the hard drive, with no
change in boot time.
Any suggestions?
